Last Monday when I was performing my duties at the nursing home a lady told me she no longer wanted to be Catholic.
This lady was known for walking all over town. She is almost 80. She got run over by a car & is recovering there.
I noticed that some Methodists were coming to see here & their conversation were loud as if to drop a hint.
So when I was there last I asked if she'd like to take communion. She acted really uncomfortable & said the people at the Methodist church had been coming by to pick her up to take here to services.
I come every Monday & we have Mass the first Monday of every month. But I know... it is not the same.
She said she felt bad about taking communion since the Methodists had done so much for her.
So I contacted our deacon which I have not heard back from yet & told him that she felt more love & concern from them than us basically.
I feel the RCC really needs to step up in these areas. I just think it's sad because I am not sure it is something she truly wanted to do.
So please say a prayer for her if you think about it.
